Lighting one more candle, hopefully symbolic of his light and therefore life going on eternally.......

I never 'knew' Burt but he seemed like a very nice person...

This evening I pulled out the May2011 edition of Peafowl Today, and read the interview Burt did for the UPA. Brought back some fond memories and (of course) 2 pages of great advice and funny stories. Wow. And I'll bet he's overseeing Peach breeding from the other side and having a blast. What a fine man.

I did the same thing. I'm incubating my first 2 pea eggs ever & so nervous.. miss him so much, but know he is with us in spirit, so following my instincts & trusting that he's up there guiding all of us!

10 laying hens, 7 Welsummer chicks, 6 Cuckoo Marans chicks, 7 peacocks, 3 guineas, 3 dogs, 2 "official" cats & 2 more who just showed up & stayed, 1 green parakeet & 1 retired-but-stays-busy husband!
